Do you think questions like that can ever be answered?

There's a YouTube video I like, called "The Chinese Farmer," by Alan Watts.

The gist of the video is that reality is so unimaginably complex that we cannot know if a given change is going to be a net positive (over what time frame?) or a net negative (again, over what time frame?).

This pretty much informs my thinking these days, and when something happens that I notice, I find myself more able to refrain from labeling it as either good or bad.

Wasn't familiar with this video myself, so I searched it up. Passing it along for the next person:
